The spectacular rock-cut tombs which meet the eyes of the visitors coming to Caunus by way of either sea or land are undoubtedly the most significant examples of funerary architecture in Caunus. The group of six rock-cut tombs, including the largest, unfinished one have been borne dumb witnesses to the events throughout the past thousands of years. In addition to this type of temple rock-cut tomb, there are deep rectangular rock-cut tombs known as "pigeon nests", niches and sarcophagi which, together with the chamber tombs at special locations, show the variety of the types of funerary architecture at Caunus. These tombs provide us with valuable information on the burial customs of the city.
